In response to the recession in the early 1990s, the Keating government further increased the generosity of family payments, and expanded access to families in the middle class.
Question for you Trev, when Whitlan introduced free university for all was that middle class welfare?
Medicare for all and free schooling accessed by the middle class is a form of middle class welfare programs well before Howard.
I'm against the baby bonus but it worked....surprisingly.....more tax payers will pay back that particular scheme.
